Nominated for 7 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actress in a Leading Role

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is a darkly comedic drama from Academy Award-winning director Martin McDonagh (In Bruges). After months have passed without a culprit in her daughter’s murder case, Mildred Hayes (Frances McDormand) makes a bold move, commissioning three signs leading into her town with a controversial message directed at William Willoughby (Woody Harrelson), the town’s revered chief of police. When his second-in-command, Officer Dixon (Sam Rockwell)—an immature mother’s boy with a penchant for violence—gets involved, the battle between Mildred and Ebbing’s law enforcement intensifies.
